Mo Zhi was startled and quickly looked around. He stepped forward and grabbed Yao Lili’s arm, asking, “Why are you here?!”
She was about to answer when they heard footsteps. She turned around and saw Mo Hai coming downstairs. She quickly lowered her voice and whispered, “Come to my room before daybreak and we’ll talk.”
The man nodded and quickly put on a hostile expression. He said, “Stay away from me!”
Then he arrogantly stepped away from her, towards Mo Hai.
Mo Hai looked at the man with a frown and asked, “Where have you been today?”
Mo Zhi reported, “At the office!”
Mo Hai looked at his son and sighed deeply as he patted the man on the shoulder. “Put in your best. Dad still believes in you.”
Mo Zhi, who had been feeling neglected for a few days now, suddenly felt his eyes burn as they filled with tears. He nodded vigorously and said, “Dad, I will work hard.”
Mo Hai pointed at the dining room and said, “Alright already, go and have your dinner. As long as you humble yourself enough to learn, you still have a chance of picking up the knowledge you’re lacking. After all, you’re still young. And you hold the majority of the Mo family business’ shares.”
The unsaid was obvious. He was telling Mo Zhi that he was the true heir of the Mo family fortune, and the future of the Mo family still belonged to him.
Mo Zhi felt a sudden rush of excitement and brightened up immediately upon hearing what his father had said.
When Yao Lili observed this, she lowered her head to hide her smile.
Mo Hai thought that he loved Mo Zhi only because Mo Zhi was his beloved Li Shu’s son.
But the fact was, Mo Zhi was the son that he had brought up and educated himself, how could he feel nothing for the young man? Perhaps Mo Hai had not realized this himself.
Hence, Mo Zhi had never really lost the game.
Yao Lili smiled at this thought. Suddenly, as though having sensed something, her posture stiffened. She turned around quickly and saw Li Shu standing in the corridor. Her gaze was fixed on Yao Lili.
Yao Lili’s smile instantly vanished. She lowered her head, pretending she hadn’t noticed the woman, and then walked up the stairs quietly.
Before she could get to the guest room, she had to walk past Li Shu. She lifted her gaze and gave Li Shu a broad smile. As she was about to step into the guest room, she suddenly heard Lu Shu say, “What is it like having Mo Xincheng as a son?”
Yao Lili halted and turned around with a puzzled expression. “What?”
Li Shu pointed in the direction of the man downstairs and couldn’t help laughing as she said, “You know something? There is something that I’m definitely not as good at as you are.
Yao Lili was slightly taken aback by her words.
Li Shu turned to look at her and said to her deliberately, “I’m not as good as you are when it comes to bringing up kids.”
She had said bringing up, not bearing.
Mo Zhi had been brought up by Li Shu and Mo Hai, but he wasn’t even a tenth of what Mo Xicheng was.
Li Shu found it laughable at this point.
Suddenly, she felt grateful and wanted to thank Yao Lili. Without her, perhaps Mo Xicheng wouldn’t have been the excellent young man he was today.
It was ironic and laughable.
She smirked icily and turned to look at Yao Lili, who was staring back at her as though not understanding a word she was saying.
Li Shu did not say anything else but returned to her room.

After shutting the room door, all expressions vanished from Li Shu’s face.
She stared blankly ahead, the only image on her mind was how Mo Hai had patted Mo Zhi on the shoulder.
She knew that it would be impossible for the elder Mo to have no feelings for Mo Zhi.
They were father and son. But when it came to Mo Xicheng, his father would only berate or hit him.
Hence, Mo Xicheng had never been close to Mo Hai.
The reason that Mo Hai had been unable to extricate himself from the entanglement with Yao Lili was because of Mo Xicheng’s existence. Hence, any mention of Mo Xicheng served only to evoke Mo Hai’s hatred and more hatred.
On one hand was the son he had brought up himself. On the other hand was the child that had rubbed him the wrong way.
Would it be possible that, even if he were to be told the truth, he would not bear to let go of Mo Zhi to accept Mo Xicheng?
Li Shu clenched her fists tightly at the thought of this.
Suddenly, she felt that perhaps she had thought too simply of this situation.
And she had thought too simply of the relationship between Mo Hai and Mo Zhi.
Although Mo Zhi wasn’t her son, he was still Mo Hai’s son.
Furthermore, it was not as if the love that Mo Hai had towards Mo Zhi would simply disappear overnight.
As she let out a troubled sigh, there was a knock on the door.
Li Shu turned around and opened the door. It was Mo Hai.
He had come at an apt time, for Li Shu wished to speak with him. Hence, she stepped to the side to let the man into the room.
Mo Hai rubbed his hands together nervously and flashed Li Shu a smile. After he entered the room, he quickly said to her, “I know you’ve brought Yao Lili home to placate that silly Mo Xicheng, so that Mo Zhi won’t be punished. But Li Shu, there is really no need for this. Mo Xicheng is my son. He won’t dare to disobey me if I insist that he sorts out the situation.”
Li Shu felt a pain in her heart upon hearing this.
Her son was silly in Mo Hai’s opinion?
She frowned and said, “Would you watch your tone.”
“Sure, I understand. What I’m saying is that you don’t have to put yourself through this.”
Mo Hai took a step forward and extended his hand towards Li Shu’s arm. Li Shu immediately retreated to avoid his contact.
She lowered her gaze and, after a moment, suddenly asked him, “Mo Hai, do you like Mo Zhi simply because he’s my son?”
Mo Hai was stunned by her words and said almost immediately, “Of course!”
Li Shu lifted her head, looked at him with an unfathomable expression and asked again, “Then right now, do you feel disappointed with Mo Zhi?”
Mo Hai’s natural assumption was that Li Shu was afraid that he would give up on Mo Zhi, hence his reply was, “Li Shu, how could you say that? Mo Zhi is my son. Even if he had makes mistakes at some point, he’s my son. I watched him grow up, wouldn’t I know what he’s like? He doesn’t lack intelligence really, it’s just that he doesn’t focus. After this, I feel that he’s learnt his lesson, you know? He went to the office today. I’ve just spoken with the secretary. She said that he performed impressively well in the office today. It looks like I should have exposed him to the company business earlier on. Giving him more stress would probably made him a better person.”
Mo Hai went on and on, talking endlessly.
It was very clear from how he spoke that he had deep affection for Mo Zhi.
Li Shu stared fixedly at Mo Hai with clenched fists, suddenly feeling that there was no longer a need to say what she had wanted to say.
She lowered her gaze and pointed at the door, saying, “You may leave now.”
Mo Hai was stunned. Weren’t they getting along just fine? Why was he suddenly asked to leave?
He wanted to say more, but Li Shu only glared at him icily.
